18 1-2 MC9190-G User Guide Unpacking Carefully remove all protective material from around the MC9190-G and save the shipping container for later storage and shipping. Verify that you received all equipment listed below: mobile computer lithium-ion battery strap, attached to the MC9190-G stylus, in the stylus silo Regulatory Guide Quick Start Guide. Inspect the equipment for damage. If you are missing any equipment or if you find any damaged equipment, contact the Motorola Global Interactive Center immediately. See page xii for contact information. Getting Started In order to start using the MC9190-G for the first time: install the main battery charge the main battery and backup battery start the MC9190-G configure the MC9190-G. The main battery can be charged before or after it is installed. Use one of the spare battery chargers to charge the main battery (out of the MC9190-G), or one of the cradles to charge the main battery installed in the MC9190-G. Installing the Main Battery Before using the MC9190-G, install a lithium-ion battery by sliding the battery into the MC9190-G as shown in Figure 1-2. NOTE Ensure the battery is fully inserted. Two audible clicks can be heard as the battery is fully inserted. A partially inserted battery may result in unintentional data loss. When a battery is fully inserted in a MC9190-G for the first time, upon first power up, the device boots and powers on automatically.

19 Getting Started 1-3 Figure 1-2 Installing the Main Battery Charging the Battery CAUTION Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on page 6-1. Charging the Main Battery and Memory Backup Battery Before using the MC9190-G for the first time, charge the main battery until the amber charge indicator light remains lit (see Table 1-1 on page 1-4 for charge status indications). The main battery fully charges in less than four hours. The MC9190-G can be charged using a cradle, the CAM, or the MSR with the appropriate power supply. The MC9190-G is also equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from the main battery whether or not the MC9190-G is operating or is in suspend mode. The memory backup battery retains data in memory for at least 30 minutes when the MC9190-G's main battery is removed or fully discharged. When the MC9190-G is used for the first time or after the memory backup battery has fully discharged, the memory backup battery requires approximately 15 hours to fully charge. Do not remove the main battery from the MC9190-G for 15 hours to ensure that the memory backup battery fully charges. If the main battery is removed from the MC9190-G or the main battery is fully discharged, the memory backup battery completely discharges in several hours. When the main battery reaches a very low battery state, the combination of main battery and backup battery retains data in memory for at least 72 hours. NOTE Do not remove the main battery within the first 15 hours of use. If the main battery is removed before the backup battery is fully charged, data may be lost. Use the following to charge batteries:

20 1-4 MC9190-G User Guide Cradles: The MC9190-G slips into the cradles for charging the battery in the MC9190-G (and spare batteries, where applicable).

Accessories: The MC9190-G snap-on accessories provide charging capability, when used with one of the accessory charging cables. For detailed snap-on setup and charging procedures refer to the MC9190 Integrator Guide. CAM MSR. Chargers: The MC9190-G spare battery charging accessories are used to charge batteries that are removed from the MC9190-G. For detailed spare battery charging accessories setup and charging procedures refer to the MC9190 Integrator Guide. Single Slot Serial/USB Cradle Four Slot Spare Battery Charger Universal Battery Charger (UBC) Adapter. NOTE To achieve the best battery life in MC9190-Gs with multiple radios, turn off the radios that are not being used. See Turning Off the Radios on page 1-8 for more information. To charge the main battery: 1. Ensure the accessory used to charge the main battery is connected to the appropriate power source. 2. Insert the MC9190-G into a cradle or attach the appropriate snap-on module. 3. The MC9190-G starts to charge automatically. The amber charge LED, in the Indicator LED Bar, lights to indicate the charge status. See Table 1-1 for charging indications. The main battery usually fully charges in less than four hours.
